The Boston Breakers played in three cities in three years. The San Antonio Gunslingers had their uniforms repossessed, and were sneaking into a high school field to practice. At one point the players went over a month without being paid. Arizona and Michigan traded franchises.

Excellent 30:30 a few years ago- it was one of the first- on the league's history. Everyone more or less blamed Trump for ruining the league. Lot of good players went to the league, three Heisman winners in a row, money, or lack of, and crazy contracts like the one above plus Trump insisting on making it a fall league took it down. But as others have brought up, there would be no fond memories of the late '80s Browns if the league would of lasted.

Fair enough, it was about Steve Young still getting paid and it was turned into a USFL nostalgia thread. However, if you think about it, he would be an idiot if he didn't insure an insane contract like that.
